WCID hasn’t provided a bill for this quarter due to changing over new management.
Tom A had provided a plat map to PAMCO. David W will work on a map of the
subdivision showing the lot number along with the street address since the plat map
only includes lot numbers.
8. Road Commissioner’s Report
David W gave an update on roads. The WCID road cuts for utility crossings have been
causing complaints. Jerry P has provided WCID with standards for refilling road cuts.
WCID has the road cuts repaired about every 2-3 months. Need to let David W know
where the road cuts are that need repairs. The Perry’s cut was recently filled with
gravel only. The Flake’s cut has not been properly repaired.
9. Architectural Committee Report
David C gave an update regarding ongoing projects. There are currently three building
projects ongoing (Flake, Perry, and the Fawn Ridge property).
Waterfront landowner wanting to move existing fence from one side of the adjacent
lot to the other.
The Board will need to incorporate any updates to the POA Restrictions and
Covenants based on SB 1588. Paul and Joanne are drafting changes that will be sent
out to POA members for feedback.
The Blonkvist’s building permit expires again in October. David informed them that
the Board may require an additional late fee. The original permit expired one year
ago.
Directors’/Officers’ Liability Insurance – Pam will check into if this liability insurance
covers Architectural Committee members.
Jim Maughan resigned from the Architectural Committee. Thank you, Jim for your
support to the Committee! Need more members for the Architectural Committee.

Thompson.
10. Discuss Restrictions & Covenants violations
No new reportings.

Paul gave an update on the Boat Storage area. The new section is open. 38 spaces are
rented. Approximately 12 spaces remain available. Cost is $150/yr.
12. Park Chairman Report
Gabe is travelling for work and not available. David W gave an update in Gabe’s
absence.
A fan and two lights are not working at the Pavilion. An electrician will need to
investigate.
Down to 4 keys for the boat ramp gate. The Board needs to assess investing in a new
system and the pros/cons of electronic vs conventional locking.
Need to make a decision about moving forward with tennis court repairs and painting
of pickle ball court. David C estimates it could cost around $30k for the repairs since
there is no rebar in the existing concrete slab and it has heaving cracks that cause
tripping hazards.
Board needs to look into the possibility of paying for garbage pickup service at the
pool. Users of the pool area have left horrible messes that volunteers are burned out
from cleaning up.

Penny gave an update on this Committee. Nine people have volunteered. The
Committee will meet soon and start summarizing the long-range vs short-range plans.
Finances for the plans will also be included in the Committee’s scope.

lowered for our annual property taxes, but appraised values look to be increasing.
